Mahindra Lifespace Developers Ltd. through its wholly owned subsidiary, Mahindra Bloomdale Developers Ltd, launched Pune’s first Biophila-inspired homes in Pimpri. Inspired by human beings’ instinctive connection with nature, called biophilia, the elements of the project are influenced by natural materials, textures, patterns and shapes that rekindle old memories while building a sustainable future.
Through these associations, homes at Mahindra Nestalgia will nurture an active and healthy lifestyle reminiscent of one’s childhood and enable residents of younger generations to experience a similar living and community experience.
Designed with nostalgia-inducing aesthetics, these Biophilia-inspired homes will enable physical, psychological, social and spiritual well-being. Amenities reigniting childhood memories of freedom, curiosity and innocence include Hopscotch, Sun Dial, Barefoot Park, Hammock Garden, Burma bridge, Dew Garden, Fur Park and more. Homes at Mahindra Nestalgia are cocooned in lush green expanses with a Koi Pond, an 8-shaped Foot Chi, Gupshup Adda, Rain Benches and Elder’s Parklet for residents to enjoy nature within the safe perimeter of the project.
Arvind Subramanian, Managing Director and CEO, Mahindra Lifespace Developers Limited said, “As we continue to strengthen our presence in Pune, one of our key focus markets, we are excited to introduce the city’s first Biophilia-inspired residential project. The role of a home and its surroundings in the overall well-being of a family has often been overlooked. Mahindra Nestalgia brings back the essence of living as we fondly remember it from our growing-up days. Many of these associations are with nature. This project will offer Punekars an opportunity to live nestled in nature, while enjoying the conveniences of a rapidly developing city”.
Mahindra Nestalgia has been pre-certified with a ‘Gold’ rating by the IGBC. The project offers tangible savings to residents via low-flow water fixtures, solar water heater, LED lighting in common areas, waste segregation, etc. The sustainable features within the project will help conserve up to 7% energy annually, reduce dependency on external water sources by 52%, and divert 90% waste away from landfill.

The 2 and 3 BHK homes range from 730 sq.ft.to 1040 sq.ft. The climate-responsive design of Mahindra Nestalgia ensures homes have optimal sunlight, fresh air circulation and open to the neighboring tranquil landscape.
